• Use fallen live oak leaves as mulch.
• Begonias can be set out in the landscape.  Look for “cocktail” series:
• Vodka-red flowers, Brandy, gin-pink flowers, Rum- white flowers.  These bedding plants have darker, bronze colored leaves and will do well in full sun.
• Keep current lawn weeds mowed to prevent reseeding, or pull out altogether.
• The first hummingbirds are arriving.  Put out feeders.
